  1. The PCHS Marching "Pride of Paulding" Band went to JSU in Alabama Saturday for the Contest of Champions. In Class A, they scored 1st place in Band, 2nd place Percussion, and 2nd place Color Guard. This was out of 9 bands in the class. There were 25 bands that competed that day and PCHS made the finals!!! There were 12 bands in the finals! We are so proud of you guys and everything that you do! PRESS ON! BOA next weekend at the GA DOME!

     

     

    Congratulations!

  2. First, a new concessions work schedule has been posted for the last two home games, October 31st and November 7th.

     

    Senior night has been moved from October 31st to November 7th, so the concessions assignments have been changed. You can access the new work schedule at the Band of Gold Website. Thanks to the many, many parent volunteers who have made the concessions successful this year.

     

    Please send in bottled water for us to take on the truck to Saturday's band competition.

     

    Every Band family should be providing volunteers for our Georgia Invitational Band Championship on Saturday, October 25th. Please step up. Band reps will be contacting you this week to give you an assignment if you have not yet volunteered. We hope to make the day a fun and memorable day for the 1,000-plus students who will be in attendance. We know you'll do your fair share to help. The Band performance schedule has been posted on the website.

     

    The Fruit Sale "profit opportunity" has been distributed to your students. Please make sure you review the materials right away. The fruit sale is always a very popular one.

  3. The Georgia Invitational Band Championship, hosted by the Hiram High School Band of Gold, is approaching. The annual event, held at Hiram High School, will take place on October 25th, beginning at 2 p.m. Admission is $7.00; admission for children 6 and under is free.

     

    Nineteen terrific bands will perform over the day-long competition! Check out the visiting bands and the judging information on the Band of Gold website.

     

    Concessions will be available throughout the day, with a BBQ dinner available during dinner hours. Souvenirs will also be sold.

     

    Band volunteers are needed for a variety of tasks throughout the day. Please step up and volunteer! We need you to make this a memorable day for all the participating band students. Contact Tracey Gossett, GIBC Coordinator, to volunteer.

  4. Band parents, please spread the word about the Band of Gold Quilt Raffle. The quilt is a beautiful and hand sewn. Tickets are $2.00 or 3 for $5.00.

     

    The quilt would make a terrific Christmas gift! PM me or Mermaidmom for details. Tickets also available at games.

  5. We had a great alumni crowd last night! Many brought their instruments, marched in with the Band of Gold and joined in playing the National Anthem. I think the unofficial alumni attendance count was about 40.

     

    Thanks to all the former Band of Gold students for joining us for the Homecoming evening! The alumni door prizes were awarded during half-time. Mermaidmom has the list of winners. Maybe she'll chime in ...

  6. According to the AJC:

     

    31 - 26 East Paulding @ North Cobb

    7 - 56 Paulding County @ Sprayberry

    28 - 42 North Paulding @ Aquinas

    3 - 7 South Paulding @ Hiram

     

    I think that's all of them.

    Hiram 7, SPHS 3. It was 0 -0 until late in the 3rd quarter. A very interesting game.

  7. Thanks for the heads up Mikey. Our shop will probably be right in the middle of it!!

     

     

    Enjoy the music. The Cafe at the starting point will make some business. The parade used to go down past the restaurant row in Hiram, but it appears they'd rather not have us there. Shame. Hundreds of people used to leave their cars parked there and walk over to dinner at the restaurants. No more. We'll stop by the cafe for a coffee. Maybe McFarlane's for dinner since we'll be in that area.

  8. Just a heads up ...

     

    The Hiram High Homecoming Parade will take place tomorrow afternoon, starting at the Hiram Community Center and ending near Hiram Elementary. The parade participants will be gathering from about 4:30 pm. The parade starts at 6 pm.

     

    Commuters may want to steer clear of the area.

  9. The Band of Gold invites all former Hiram High Band Members to return for homecoming and join the Band in the stands. Dust off your instrument! We’ll send you the music! And drop by the Alumni Tent to register for door prizes! Let us know you’re coming– send an e-mail to HiramBandBoosters@yahoo.com. Spread the word.

     

    A Facebook Event has been created for you to register and to keep you up to date: Hiram Band of Gold Alumni Band at Homecoming Game. . We have many confirmed guests so far! We'll have a great evening!

     

    Come play with the Band you helped build at Homecoming, October 10th!

     

    The Hiram Band of Gold — the Band of Hiram, Georgia!
